The Ordination Mass was celebrated by Bishop Alan Hopes at the Church of Our Lady and the English Martyrs in Cambridge. It was witnessed by a packed church of well over 300 people, includ - ing family and friends of Deacon Jaylord and parishioners from the Cambridge churches of St Philip Howard and St Laurence, together with peo - ple from the Annunciation of Our Lady, King’s Lynn, parishes in which he has served over the last 18 months. Prior to that, Jaylord spent six years in formation for the priesthood in the Philippines. The Rite of Ordination included the calling and presentation of the candidate, election by Bishop Alan, the laying-on of hands and a prayer of con - secration. This was followed by the investiture of Deacon Jaylord with a stole and a Dalmatic (vest - ment) and the presentation of the Book of the Gospels. Ending the Mass, Mgr Eugène Harkness, Chan - cellor of East Anglia and Rector at OLEM, and who first presented Jaylord for consideration for ordination, said: “This is an historic day in the life of our Diocese with Jaylord becoming the first- ever Pinoy deacon – the first of many more we Scenes hope, with one more well into his formation and from the possibly another two to begin their studies soon.” Epiphany After the Mass the congregation enjoyed an Mass and impressive Filippino meal in St Alban’s school fireworks hall.

THE MINUTES OF THE MEETING HELD ON 13th OCTOBER 2018 Under item 3 on page 1 David Griffith (Thetford and Rockland) stated the amendments made to the minutes for 23rd June 2018 were incorrect and should state the following correction: “…The Standing Advisory Committee (SACRE) is responsible for the production of the locally Agreed Syllabus for RE which is given to schools once the Agreed Syllabus Conference have written it…” The minutes were then approved and signed as a true record. 2. MATTERS ARISING FROM THE PREVIOUS MEETING There were no matters arising. Before commencing item 3 the Diocesan Secretary promulgated the following:- “At its February 2019 group of sessions, held in London, the General Synod resolved that Amending Canon No. 38 be made promulged and executed. Amending Canon No.38 replaces the former Canon B 43 (relations with other Churches) and Canon B 44 (local ecumenical projects) with a new Canon B 43 to be entitled “Of ecumenical relations.” 3.

Approval was given. 1 The Bishop of Lynn introduced this item by explaining that in the intervening years of supporting Papua New Guinea, this year the chosen 2019 Lent Appeal did not have a direct connection with the Diocese but a close working relationship with USPG and the work they are doing to prevent human trafficking.

This includes the ways in which we publicly express our faith. It is very clear that, follow- ing official advice and in order to keep each other safe, save lives and support the NHS, at this time we must not gather for public acts of worship in our churches. This will begin from Friday evening, 20th March 2020, until further notice. Our churches will remain open. They are not closing. They will be a focal point of prayer, where you will find solace and strength. In visiting our churches at this time, we will observe with great care the practices of hygiene and the guidance on social dis- tancing. However, the celebration of Mass, Sunday Tributes paid to by Sunday and day by day, will take place without a public congregation. Knowing that the Mass is being celebrated; joining in spiritually in that celebration; watch- ing the live-streaming of the Mass; following its prayers at home; making an act of spiritual Archbishop Peter communion: this is how we share in the Sac- rifice of Christ in these days.

    Parish Registers and Transcripts in the Norfolk Record Office

    Parish Registers and Transcripts in the Norfolk Record Office This list summarises the Norfolk Record Office’s (NRO’s) holdings of parish (Church of England) registers and of transcripts and other copies of them. Parish Registers The NRO holds registers of baptisms, marriages, burials and banns of marriage for most parishes in the Diocese of Norwich (including Suffolk parishes in and near Lowestoft in the deanery of Lothingland) and part of the Diocese of Ely in south-west Norfolk (parishes in the deanery of Fincham and Feltwell). Some Norfolk parish records remain in the churches, especially more recent registers, which may be still in use. In the extreme west of the county, records for parishes in the deanery of Wisbech Lynn Marshland are deposited in the Wisbech and Fenland Museum, whilst Welney parish records are at the Cambridgeshire Record Office. The covering dates of registers in the following list do not conceal any gaps of more than ten years; for the populous urban parishes (such as Great Yarmouth) smaller gaps are indicated. Whenever microfiche or microfilm copies are available they must be used in place of the original registers, some of which are unfit for production. A few parish registers have been digitally photographed and the images are available on computers in the NRO's searchroom. The digital images were produced as a result of partnership projects with other groups and organizations, so we are not able to supply copies of whole registers (either as hard copies or on CD or in any other digital format), although in most cases we have permission to provide printout copies of individual entries.

Every aspect of school life has been disrupted – not least those students who had been preparing for their GCSE’s or ‘A’ level exams. From a Catholic Life point of view we were unable to complete our usual liturgical and prayer services that we had planned for Lent in preparation for the great feast of Easter. However, through the modern technology that we now have we have been able to maintain our links to our families and friends, our school and our church. Praying together as a member of all these groups we belong to has been made possible by the live streaming of mass and other resources for prayer and reflection that have been made available to us. Communication between us can take many forms and I would like to share with you this uplifting blessing for us from those who cannot communicate verbally but use Makaton signing: https://youtu.be/va048-XxFTI As we approach the end of term CAFOD (Catholic Agency for Overseas Development) have produced a National Assembly for all children in our country.

    ARCHDEACONRY OF NORWICH The Mitre Benefice These notes are intended to supplement the information given in the PCC document, adding a slightly wider perspective and some additional information. They should be read in conjunction with the fuller description of life in the Diocese of Norwich which can be found at https://www.dioceseofnorwich.org/app/uploads/2020/12/Our-Life-Together-2021.pdf The Benefice and this appointment – a note from the Bishop of Norwich The appointment of a new vicar for the Mitre benefice is a key strategic appointment, not just for the benefice itself but as a significant partner with the diocese, heading up a resource church with considerable potential. The Mitre has been through a number of challenges in the past two years. Rapid expansion in 2013 – 2017 was a great blessing, but the structures and processes were not always in place to underpin and secure a larger church structure. The current team have worked hard to put some of this in place, but the new incumbent will want to ensure that the finance, pastoral care and governance are able to support the bold vision of church-planting and disciple-making. The previous incumbent had a vision for church planting and revitalisation that informed the bid for national funding from the strategic development fund. So strong was his commitment to this that he took on the role of Diocesan Director of Church Planting and Revitalisation in addition to his role as Vicar – a workload that proved to be unsustainable. This arrangement resulted in some blurring of boundaries between the mission of STN and the diocesan Church Planting and Revitalisation Programme, which has taken some untangling.
